I should note, folks, that if Thinking, Fast and Slow wins, please bear in mind there is a revised edition of the book out. This time around the revisions are substantial: an entire chapter and other sections of the book were removed or rewritten because the underlying work turned out to fail to replicate. My understanding is the revised edition is rock solid (Thinking is basically "the only good lay science book", by some accounts), but we have an opportunity to plumb those depths if it wins.

I believe I have the original edition, considering it has "The Marvels of Priming" as listed in that article. I'm having trouble finding any info regarding the revised edition. Is the entire chapter "The Associative Machine" the one that was removed?
